In reply to the discussion: Why I want to see Senator Sanders run for the Democratic nomination for President [View all]Jim Lane
(11,175 posts)You read far enough to see that I'm not falling to my knees before the Hillary Inevitability Juggernaut, and, having ascertained that, you go on autopilot with the same stuff you post incessantly.
This is the last time I'll say it: There is a difference between a poll that compares candidates, asking which one the respondent would prefer for a nomination or election, and a poll that asks the respondents if they approve or disapprove (or have a favorable or unfavorable opinion) of each candidate. You incessantly post polls of the first type, but in this thread you've characterized the results as if the polls were of the second type.
Am I a betting man? As it happens, I am. My bet here (if I hadn't let you past-post me by disclosing it) would be that you'll respond to my argument by again ignoring what I actually wrote, re-re-reposting your beloved poll results, and adding that the polls "prove" that Clinton would be the strongest candidate in the general. You'll also ignore anyone who points out that these polls are two years before the election.
If you take this course, you won't even have to ignore me, because I won't bother responding. You may have the last word. Enjoy.
